Joe ‘Pags’ Pagliarulo weighed-in this week on the anniversary of Pearl Harbor, outlining the shocking changes that have taken place in American culture in the last 81 years.

“I want to reflect for a moment about the differences in our culture. There were people who -after Pearl Harbor was attacked- lied about their age to go fight against the Japanese and the Germans,” began Pags.

“They did that because of love of country… They weren’t going to let some Emperor try and take over the world,” he added. “They joined up and over 400,000 Americans died in World War 2. They were fighting for freedom for all human beings.”

“Fast forward 81 years, you’ve got people who don’t think that laws matter,” concluded Pagliarulo. “The loudest voices are saying that America is bad and horrible.”
